Industrial washing and sorting for bell peppers
Efficiently sort, trim, and wash your peppers with a single system, ensuring optimal separation and cleanliness in your food processing line.

Sorts, Washes, and Separates Vegetables and Fruits
The GEWA 3850V PLUS from KRONEN is a high-capacity washing and sorting machine designed to efficiently handle complex food processing tasks. Utilizing a helical washing system, this machine separates and cleans various vegetable and fruit products, such as diced bell peppers and broccoli florets, ensuring optimal quality and hygiene. It processes up to 1,200 kg of produce per hour, integrating seamlessly into continuous production lines with its automatic filling and vibration outfeed. The flotation separation system distinguishes between waste and usable products using water flow dynamics, minimizing labor and enhancing efficiency. Constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel, it ensures durability and corrosion resistance, while its water management system reduces consumption and maintains environmental compliance. Additionally, its accessible design facilitates easy cleaning and maintenance, crucial for food processing environments. Tailored solutions and engineering support are available to meet specific production needs, making it an ideal choice for large-scale vegetable and fruit processing facilities.
